Back To Business

President Obama is a very good speaker. I hardly ever watch those things. I feel they are more of a cheerleading exercise than anything else, but I wanted to see the new President in his first address to Congress and I think it went well. But what do I know.

I just can't get over the applause aspect of those meetings. Those poor Congressmen must have really sore hands the day after one of those things.

Standing ovation when the President arrives.

Another when he is introduced.

He says "Hi", ....Standing ovation.

I think he sneezed once and got a standing ovation. But only the Republicans stood up for that.

The Democrats would stand and applaud when the Pres would say something they liked and the Republicans would stand when he mentioned something in thier favor. Both parties would stand when he would say something Generic.

As I was watching this little lovefest I started to get angry. Because I realised it was same as it has always been. You see.... I know what kind of speech he needs to make to congress.

Those people who were applauding when thier special interest was mentioned, well they are the one who got us into the the mess we are in right now. Congress has caused all the problems we have.

The Presidents first line in his speech should have been.

" What the HELL are you guys doing?"

Second line should be.

" Why are you sitting here applauding me when YOU could be fixing our country?"

and it should continue with.

"Our country is in trouble and You, the legislative branch of our government, has let it happen."

"Why?"

"Now get off you asses and go fix it!"

Congress might not give him an ovation for that speech, but the country would.



********Remember....It is important that YOU always feel good *****
